Mexican street food in Sweethaws, from our truck or trailer
A taco stall covers many diets at once: there are vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options, with corn tortillas. That helps organisers balance the line-up. Popular choices include loaded nachos, tacos and vegan tacos, which works well for festivals and community events and open days.
Rural events near Sweethaws can be a long way from food outlets, so a taco truck is a welcome sight. You can book food, drinks or both, so the food and drinks can come from one caterer.

Common questions in Sweethaws
What’s the nearest station to Sweethaws for guests?
Crowborough station, about 2.2 miles east of the centre.
Do you cater in the High Weald National Landscape?
Yes. Some venues there have rules about vehicles, ground and catering, so check with yours. Tell us about narrow lanes and soft ground.
What happens if it rains?
Rain does not typically stop service from the truck or trailer. Plan cover for guests, such as a marquee or gazebo, and tell us if heavy rain could make the ground soft.
Can you trade at our festival or fair?
Tell us about your event, and we’ll confirm availability and requirements.
How much is a food truck for an event?
It depends on guest numbers, the menu, the length of service and the location. Contact us for a quote.
Do you have vegan options?
Yes, they’re part of the planning from the start. Let us know how many vegetarian and vegan guests to expect.
Where do you cater?
London and the South East: Greater London, Kent, Surrey, East and West Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Milton Keynes and Oxfordshire.
Do you cook on site?
Food is cooked to order in our truck or trailer, or served from a build-your-own taco bar. Slow-cooked fillings are prepared in advance and kept hot on site.
DIY taco night or a caterer?
Plenty of people try a DIY taco night at home. The usual problems are cold tortillas, running out of a popular filling and a host stuck at the stove. If you’d rather be with your guests, we’ll do the serving.
A DIY taco night works well for a small group. For big numbers or lots of diets, a caterer makes life easier, with allergen information for every dish.
Space, access and the venue
Everything is served from our food truck or trailer, so the spot needs a little planning. These are the things we check:
- Access for the truck or trailer at set-up
- A pitch with space around it, away from tents and structures
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
Not sure about your space? Send us a picture and we’ll tell you honestly.
Working with your venue
If you run the same event each year, tell us your dates early, so we can plan ahead.
Booking for a company? Tell us what your finance team needs, and we’ll explain how it works. We can work with your facilities team on access and timings.
What Mexican street food costs
Two events with the same number of guests can cost different amounts, because of:
- Whether you need disposables
- Travel, parking and access
- Adding food to drinks, or drinks to food
- The number of people
Comparing caterers? Look at what each quote includes: serving hours, staff, disposables, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we will set out what’s included.
Getting an accurate quote
When you get in touch, it helps to tell us:
- Expected numbers
- What power and water the site has
- The venue or postcode
- The date and time of the event
Still deciding on the menu? No problem: give us the basics about your event, and we’ll make suggestions. To start, tell us about it on our contact page.
How it compares
Hot-cabinet food lacks appeal. Everything we serve is assembled to order. There is no one-size-fits-all price for Mexican street food. A simple party menu and a full wedding day are very different jobs. Contact us for a quote.
